WHAT LOVE IS LIKE: FINALE

As I approach the final heights A searing trail of regret, stains a long and winded life I seek a stolen amnesty to call you mine And to smooth my crimes Just one more time So I, go to sleep and drop the knife So I, walk the light and then realize Did I ever understand what warmth is like Did I ever understand what trust is like Did I ever understand the stars and the sands why they intertwine Did I ever understand what love is like And on the twenty second of April my heartbeat paused I said I've loved you then And that has never stopped And every year that day I take you to the Forbes back lot Where we had watched the stars And prayed for wanderlust In hidden corridors, and practice rooms we built up trust I axed down miles of thorns You filled the space with love But looming separation threatened all that we built up You asked what love is like So then I quit my job And we had jet set cross the world to find our stolen dreams As I had held you in the night sky as the fireworks gleam And as your gaze met mine I saw a life so free In ocean vineyard vines And seas of autumn leaves But then my mind fell sick in never ending self defeat And I had questioned whether god could ever forgive me I tied the final knot And braced for roaring seas But when I looked back up It was all you not me I break down sobbing how could I have been so god damn weak I scavenge pieces of my cratered feeble memories And every good thing that I've ever had was ruined by me If I can't love myself Then how could you love me So if you see this and you reckon that it's time to leave I understand, but hold my hands, once more before you speak I want to thank you for the best three years of my life I know what love is like What love is like... I'd take you to the Forbes back lot to gaze upon the stars We jet set cross the world for stolen dreams and fuller hearts And as I held you while the fireworks burst in feral sparks I saw a life of ocean vineyard vines midnight revoir l break down sobbing how could I have gone and lost it all I scavenge pieces of my cratered mind before the fall I trade my youth for faithless hope that one day you would call But you never called Did I ever understand what warmth is like Did I ever understand what trust is like Did I ever understand the stars and the sands why they intertwine Did I ever understand what love is like
